Shifted Wiki


The Shifted Librarian is back and using a Wiki. A Wiki is a Web page that anyone can edit and change. If you have been curious or this is totally new, check this out and add links and suggestions. The Shifted Wiki is
a place to put your ideas for RSS feeds you think different types of librarians could benefit from reading in an aggregator. If we can pull this off, it will be a great way to help those who are new to RSS get a jumpstart.

So I'd like to ask that you think about which library feeds are most useful to you and ask that you add them to the appropriate library type on the wiki. There's also the start of the never-got-off-the-ground Honor Roll of Shifted Libraries, so feel free to add suggestions there, too.
